"Tampa. That we've talked to. Most of them have told us that they weren't expecting it to hit here. And it wasn't just Florida. Larry Phillips lives in Raleigh, North Carolina. I kept watching this one tree bending. I kept thinking it was going to fall. And all it was this one hit. And now it was flat based. At least 145 hospitals and medical facilities in Florida were impacted by hurricane Ian. CBS News special report on that piper. And as you just heard what was once hurricane and also took aim at South Carolina Friday night making landfall in Georgetown, South Carolina, heavy rain, ferocious winds, hit neighborhoods and garden city, which is where we find WTO Steve dresner. A lot of residents stayed in or whether tran crew were spending the morning with one family who wrote out the storm. Now, ironically, they lost a lot in their bottom floor of their property, but they never lost power. A lot of property damage, but they never lost power, but I would say in this subdivision I'm in most people stayed. Yes, they suffered damage, but you know, we talked to a few residents. They have other properties or relatives. I see U haul truck actually three U haul trucks around. So some have elected to pack up and move in with relatives, and that's how they've been dealing with it. That's WTO Steve dresner in South Carolina. We are going to see rain sticking around all day here thanks to Ian, storm team four, meteorologist Anderson tells us The Rain could mean some coastal flooding. There's going to be some coastal flooding concerns. We don't have any watches or warnings out now. But that coastal flooding particularly around high tide will be the problems in southern Maryland to lower Potomac and the northern neck of Virginia. Folks in Stafford county, I talked to them, and they were concerned about their boats along the shore, and also Annapolis will be picking up some flooding concerns, and really if you're going by Haynes point or areas in the title basin, you will start to see that high water and that's due to the coastal flooding. So that is really the surge day we will be getting. It's low compared to other areas, but that is what we will experience. And that storm team four meteorologist clay Anderson keep it right here on your weather alert station. Protesters rallied in D.C., Minneapolis, and several Canadian cities Saturday after 22 year old masa amini died while she was an Iranian custody demonstrations have happened in Iran for the past three weeks there.

"So I'm going from Christianity conversation all the way to Star Trek enterprise conversation in a single day and it's pretty freaking cool to be able to do that. Well, tell William Shatner, I said hello and one of my families growing up favorite activities to do because my father was a paramedic was we would all gather around at dinner and watch William Shatner on 9-1-1. And watch horrific ambulance accidents and people getting injured horrifically while we stuff stake in our faces. So that's I actually recall William Shatner more fondly from that than I do from Star Trek because my parents weren't truckies.

"But maybe it's coming up with creative business ideas or coming up with new content ideas or finding your reconnection to God or your religion or all of these wonderful things. That's what I'm really excited about. And that's not medicine. That's about life. That's about humanity. That's about consciousness. That's what's really cool. And so we're doing a lot of things to really lay the groundwork to make this something that's going to become available and relevant and meaningful across society having these conversations opening people up, helping people see the wonder and the mystical aspects of our life and this existence. And so we've got another guy a lot of little things percolating in that respect as well that you'll start to see as they start to roll out. Yeah, there's of course all of the chatter about, hey, we're just a bunch of people who have figured out how to make getting high legal and socially acceptable and I run into that a lot. You know, especially for me, you know, being an evangelical Christian, you all run into people at church, and they're like, how could you even? Use something like psilocybin. Isn't that the same as whatever, you know, being drunk? In a very well controlled set in setting, as you've just alluded to the personal or professional or spiritual breakthroughs that one can experience when immersed in the use of one of these compounds can be absolutely life transforming. I think it's one of the reasons that God put these molecules on the planet in the first place is so that they could be used in moderation and responsibly in such settings and the fact that we've figured out how to do it in like a modern walk into the deck off of the Star Trek enterprise type of lush setting in a field trip clinic. I think that that's amazing. A lot of people think you gotta go be like barefoot sitting in a bunch of poop in the Amazon, you know, picking out a mushroom from the cow dung or getting bitten by snakes to really make it a true experience. You know, often your Peru adventure, but really, I mean, if you can walk into a clean, safe protected whitewash facility and have like the music and the soft robe and the exact dose that you need and you're not worried about death or snake bikes or steak bites or having to get an airplane 14 hours later to fly home across 7 time zones. I mean, there's a lot of benefit to this. And I think it's just really, really great what you guys are doing. That's exactly it, which is like, yeah, it's awesome. If you want to fly to Peru and do that so called authentic experience with shamans and Peru or wherever you want to. Wonderful. Do it. That's amazing. But for the other 99.7% of people who that's not an option for, whether economically or just lifestyle wise, we want to make this something where psychedelics and the transcendence and the insights and the spirit and all of these wonderful things that come out of psychedelic experiences can be a part of their lives. You know, maybe they don't dedicate their lives to it like shamans do, but if it becomes a nice and junk to your life and make your life better. Even one or 2% better if we can make the lives of all Canadians in all Americans, one or 2% better, one or 2% more empathetic or creative, got the world would be an entirely different place. Yeah. You know, speaking to your Christian evangelical roots, have you read the immortality key by Brian mirror rescue? Yeah. Oh yeah, yeah, Brian's a friend of mine. That's a great book. And I mean, again, back to the whole Christianity thing. If you read the Bible 'cause I'm actually taking my family through the book of revelations right now. The story of the end times and if you look at the beginning of the planet from a creationist standpoint, started off as a garden, but the end is in a garden. It's a garden city, right? And so this idea of tying ancient wisdom into modern science, the idea of, you know, a hundred years from now a beautiful lush landscape of vertical gardens growing on rooftops and these type of clinics where you can go in and have the same experience your ancestors would have been digging around in cow pies to do out in a muddy field, you know, thousands of years ago, but now you're in this type of more urban safe city type of setting. I love that whole idea, you know, just because we're transferring from a garden into a garden city doesn't mean we need to have chronological snobbery about the way things used to be back in the good old days when we'd strap barbed wire to our feets and walk uphill both ways in the snow to get to school. It's like, well, it's actually, I get my Tesla now and that's great. That's exactly right. And I'm Jim glad you mentioned the steroid enterprise because in an hour and a half, I'm actually recording with William Shatner on his show. I don't understand talking about this exact subject..

"I asked about, you know, your experience with, for example, feeling more connected to the divine or universal human consciousness or what I personally believe is God. You know, a lot of times you'll hear about something like that occurring with DMT or with a very, very high dose of psilocybin or LSD in some cases with ketamine all often when I speak with people about their experience hear them talk about really reliving things from their youth, dealing with past traumas, having personal breakthroughs as you get a little bit of the ego kind of set aside and a little bit of that dissociative state. But sometimes it seems to be a little bit less of a profound molecule with regards to really, really opening up the portals to God, so to speak. If that makes sense. That's why I was asking. Yeah, you're a 100% right. That tends to be at least the anecdotal reference to ketamine that people find it a little bit more objective, you know, creating some separation. But we definitely hear a lot of experiences for the people in our clinics to experience something mystical experience God who experienced the transcendent and I had that experience. You know, I've done a lot of work myself with like meditation and coaching and metaphysics and all that kind of stuff. So maybe I was more priest predisposed or primed for that kind of experience, but it's not uncommon. It's just more common people have a little bit more of an analytical experience as opposed to a wondrous experience. Yeah, those interesting. Do you think it's something you do again? Yeah, totally. I'd be happy to do it again. Coming out of it, like I felt I was like, that was pretty intense. And I'm like, I don't know if I'd want to do that again, but having had the benefit of a couple of days to integrate. I was like, oh, that's actually it was an amazing experience. And since then, it's been a few weeks, I felt more relaxed, more at ease, more present. You know, all the wonderful things you want to get out of a psychedelic experience. I've actually found even though coming out of the actual trip, I wasn't feeling top notch at that particular moment with the benefit of time. It's been really, I think transcendent. Yeah, my own experience with ketamine for the first time was I was out of the dinner with doctor Matthew cook. And also a Stanford researcher another friend of my name, Dan party, and we were talking about ketamine and some of the research that had been done on it and this was like four years ago. And literally, I was down in the Bay Area. I was engaged in a bunch of podcasts and business meetings, et cetera and I think it was doctor cook who piped up at the table and he said, well, if you'd like to actually see what this feels like with the experiences like come into my clinic sometime, I'm looking at my calendar and essentially I said, well, how things look ten a.m. tomorrow morning. He's like, all right. So I literally went in and had him a very well trained physician, you know, administer an IV and a special they have a room that's kind of like it looks like a Chinese traditional medicine practitioner room with very good energy and clean energy. And they have someone to sit with you and so that was my first experience. And since then, I've probably probably used ketamine for the past four years, almost every month, like using it at least one time to for many of the benefits that you and many others have spoken about on my podcast and that I don't necessarily want to get blue in the face about, but it's one of those things I've personally found to be not something that's necessary for everybody to have to check off in life, but for anybody who really digs kind of like just like setting the ego aside and having a profound experience that for me personally has resulted in a lot of enhanced creativity and breakthroughs in terms of my writing and business ideas, et cetera I think it's a very, very nice molecule for that a lot. I don't personally have a history of depression and haven't used it as such. I could see it being effective for that as well. When administered properly, right? Yeah. One of the things that differentiates us from most ketamine experiences is we give it as an intramuscular injection as opposed to an IV. So I took 65 milligrams and that sent me into a little intense trip. You know, it was a very psychedelic experience. When you get it with an IV, it's a slow drip. It kind of helps put you under. It's a very kind of gentle, slow ride. With field trip, we want you to have the more intense ride with the lowest amount of drug possible. You know, that's where we get the best outcomes and people who have that psychedelic experience, who have the trip, but also get all the neurobiology benefits, you know, the neurogenesis synaptogenesis that's going on. You get everything. You get the whole benefit of doing it the way we do it. When you're just doing it with a ketamine infusion and maybe there's therapy, maybe there's not. It's like you get some benefit, but you're leaving a lot on the table by doing it that way as opposed to the field trip way. And so, you know, kind of getting down to brass tacks again with this FT what's it called FT one O four? FT one O four. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but this is basically like a psilocybin lookalike that you guys have developed, which I think is interesting for a few reasons. First of all, sometimes the sourcing or even the sustainability of harvesting mushrooms can be a little bit tricky, but I also just find it fascinating in terms of the ability to be able to simulate what psilocybin does, but with more rapid onset shorter duration, et cetera, walk me through the history of why you guys even thought of developing this and how you would actually develop something like FT one O four. So get into the science of this with and grow. Yeah, sure. So I'll start with the why, which is we're seeing profoundly positive results with psilocybin and MDMA and clinical trials. Like I said, 70% of people going through the MDMA trial seemed to be cured of PTSD. Psilocybin trials, we're seeing 5 years of depression relief from a single session. These are mind-blowing numbers in terms of clinical trials, particularly in the mental health sphere. Two big challenges with the psychedelics..

"But assuming it's pretty reasonable, then I think it's pretty easy just to draw a straight line extrapolation, which is if you have a therapist in the room for two hours and it's 750 bucks for that experience and with LSD, it's going to be ten hours or 12 hours. You're probably looking at 5 times the cost for a day, which is basically what you're paying for. It's like a full day of therapist time. The actual medicine itself is not terribly expensive. It's the cost of the person sitting beside you that ends up being expensive because they're professional, they're qualified and they got degrees and they got to make a living too. But I don't think the cost becomes too outlandish or too disconnected from the time input put it by the professionals who are with you. How much longer you think a lot of this stuff gets covered by insurance? Ketamine, it's gonna be a while. Because ketamine's a generic drug, so no one's doing the work. Well, that's not true. A lot of people are doing the work, but the most natural path to getting insurance coverage is getting drag approval for a specific indication and then taking it around to all the insurance companies and because ketamine is generic. It's just kind of putting the cart before the horse and working backwards. I think MDMA assisted therapy when it gets approved, probably in the next 18 months, we'll have insurance coverage come in really quickly within probably 6 months of approval maybe a year. And with the other drugs that are specifically approved for mental health indications, I think that happens really quick. Because when you look at the results and the economics, it's insane for insurance. I shouldn't use that word. It would be irrational for insurers and employers not to want to cover this. You know, maps the organization running the maps, the MDMA trials. They did their health economic metrics on MDMA assisted therapy and they suggest that MDMA assisted therapy three sessions of it, which cures nearly 70% of the participants who have participated in their trials of PTSD. I put cures in, quote, because it's not quite true, but it's almost true. It would save the average insurance plan a $100,000 over the life of that patient. That's a lot of money. And you can extrapolate that to other trials with psilocybin and people who have depression tending consume 40% or more resources of just medical care. So not only are you making these people more productive, getting them back to work. We've seen that improvements in depression scores actually lead to greater productivity in the workplace as well. So you're getting better employees, healthier employees who are consuming less medical or resources, it would be completely illogical for any insurance plan not to cover this and in fact, probably try to make it a first line option because it's so effective, whether it's MDMA or psilocybin. And in treating the conditions and making people better quite literally better than they were before. I think insurance coverage will be robust and available and people will be excited to offer that because they will make an ROI on that in spades over the long term. How many times have you gone into one of your own clinics and done one of these therapy sessions with ketamine? I actually had my first one about two weeks ago. And that was mostly a function of regulatory environment and COVID. So in Toronto where I'm based, the restrictions on who we can treat are actually pretty significant. We can only treat people with treatment resistant depression. So you failed two different courses of conventional depression medications. That's not me. So I had to go to one of our U.S. clinics, but thanks to COVID, I haven't been on a plane since February of 2020 until two weeks ago when I went down to the code conference. And actually got to pose a question to Elon Musk about psychedelics. I don't know if you saw that video but it's pretty cool getting a lawn's perspective on all this kind of stuff. But when I was in LA for code, that's when I had my first ketamine experience. And my only ketamine experience actually. How'd it go? I mean, I realized I'm putting you in the hot seat on a pod, but I mean, any takeaways for you as far as your own experience and your own clinic? Yeah, I mean, the clinic is fantastic or staff is amazing and I'm not just, you know, tooting our own horn. It was actually quite an amazing overall experience. Everyone was thoughtful caring super comfortable super at ease. My academy and experience itself. It was quite profound, actually. You know, I felt like as the ketamine took over that I was seeing the beating heart of the universe. You know, they talk about life afterlife or people who have intense psychedelic experience often get the sense that there's a unifying life force that exists in the universe, whether you call that God or a life force or whatever you want to call it. I experienced that. Really with ketamine. Yeah, with ketamine. But it showed me also that even though there is this powerful life force that exists. It's not all bliss and wonder that sometimes there are just some functional elements of being a life force. And so it's not always super flower. You're an amazing. And what that showed me is that this experience of being human, emerging from this life soup to become human for a while before we go back to this life soup is actually a really special experience. And it's something that we should enjoy for all its wonders and all its miseries. It's a really unique time. It's a really unique experience. And so love every moment of it. So coming out of my trip, I just felt an intense amount of gratitude for all the things in my.

"But you come in, we help you prepare. We help you get in the right mindset. It's all of our places are I like the term oasis like as opposed to spa like, but they're really beautiful spaces designed to make people feel comfortable and at ease. You settle into your zero gravity, reclining chair, therapist is sitting beside you. I put on noise canceling headphones, a nice way to blanket, some eye shades, you get the medicine and you go inwards and you're there. You experience whatever you're going to experience a therapist is with you, the entire time at the end of it, you can just kind of debrief talk about what came up. And that's it, and then there's like a lounge where you can hang out afterwards because even after the experience, some people aren't ready to go back to real life. Oh dude, like jail for as long as possible. For me, if I use ketamine and I actually like every couple of weeks, we talk about this on the last show, like, I'll use ketamine for massage therapy, but there's no way I'm gonna wanna drive anywhere afterwards or do anything aside from just like kind of sit there smiling and journaling to myself and being in my happy place for a couple hours. Again, once the medicine is not completely gone out of your system, but you're well out of that disassociated space that Kevin puts you into, you really don't feel like going out to a cocktail party afterwards. Not at all. That's exactly right. And truthfully, we want you to stay in that space. That space is where the magic for lack of a better term happens is like when you've got that space you've got the relaxation and disconnection from all the thoughts that are running in your head and you can actually reflect cleanly and openly on your life and who you are and where you want to be and all that kind of stuff that journaling is so powerful for, you know, take that space, take that opportunity. Don't go back into regular life. Keep yourself. We're crying out loud, even using the app. Keep your phone in airplane mode. Like you do not want to open yourself up to whoever randomly decided to text message you and the two hours while you were in there when you first come out of it. And so that's super important. But then, you know, like, for me, if I were to get a massage at my house and were to use ketamine to do that, you know, the massage therapist and I have an understanding. She just kind of like leaves when she's done and I sit quietly and I can journal and just kind of continue to listen to the music and listen to some of my audios and you know, I use that as fodder for coming up with ideas for new articles or books or tackling some type of some type of a conundrum I've been experiencing personally or professionally. But if someone's at the clinic, I mean what if they have like treatment at 5 p.m. in the clinic closes at 6 p.m. or something, you just kick them out and good luck or go sit in your car in the parking lot 'cause I've heard horror stories about stuff like that. Yeah, I know we certainly don't do that. We schedule around it, so typically people won't start anytime after kind of like two p.m. and then the clinic usually closes its doors around 6 or 7. So if the ketamine experience is about an hour and two an hour and a half, there's always a good couple hours baked in where people can just be present in the clinic without having to hurry home. Talk to me about some of the other things beyond ketamine that you think we're going to start to see. Obviously, you're in your lawyer, so you have to talk with your lawyer talk, and this isn't legal at this time and blah, blah, blah, but anyways, and I don't want to be dismissive of this stuff we're talking about at its core is sacred. What we're talking about at its core is deeply meaningful and impactful. So I don't want to discount that when I'm when I'm joking around. But at the same time we're on an in terms of the landscape of what this looks like. If someone were to walk into a field trip health clinic right now, they can obviously have an amazing spa like experience with something like ketamine, but what's that look like, say, 5 years from now? Do you have when you walk into like an anti aging clinic and you can choose your NAD cocktail and your vitamin C cocktail and your ozone this and that? I mean, do you see there being almost like a menu of options for people? And if so, what would be on that menu in your wildest dreams? Yeah, a 100% I see a menu of options. I think we're going to see new options available or be restricted not. I don't think it's going to be like going into an anti aging clinic where you can pick ABC one two three and put together your perfect cocktail. I think that comes, but I think that takes a little while. What we're seeing in the next 5 years, we're going to see MDMA assisted therapy become FDA approved for the treatment of PTSD, but lo and behold, you know, most depression often has roots in trauma to some degree. So I think you'll see MGM assisted therapy. Can we become available to anybody who's dealing with depression or anxiety or anything along those lines? Psilocybin is probably three, four, 5 years out from FDA approval, but even though that's still a little bit out, we're seeing states like the state of Oregon, legalize access to psilocybin therapies. I'm quite confident you'll see California legalize or at least decriminalize psilocybin next year, Canada, federally, probably is going to legalize the side into some degree. You got Florida. You got why you got all these states creating some sort of access program. So over the next couple of years psilocybin will become an option. It probably see DMT become an option. You'll see LSD, potentially become an option LSD is a little bit more challenging because it's such a long trip time. It makes it kind of clinically difficult to have someone sitting around for that long have an experience, but you'll probably see LSD become an option for those who want it 5 me oh, it's probably on the horizon as well. So all of the psychedelics you can think of are probably three, four years away, and maybe 5 years. And then you're going to see the next generation of psychedelics like FT one O four, the ones that are taking all the wonderful power of these molecules and just making them better or more accessible or more tailored. You know, there's a whole bunch of interesting work around that kind of stuff. But that's probably 6 7 years out. I definitely want to talk about that FT one O four, I think that's intriguing that you can just take something and fabricate it and make it very much like something that humankind would have used for thousands of years arguably for commune with the divine or spiritual breakthroughs. And be able to generate something like that in a lab. I want to talk more about this FT one O four for sure. But regarding something like let's say, as you alluded to, someone wants to and has heard about all the benefits of something like taking LSD, but wants to do so in a very controlled set in setting, which they're safe. Other people around them are safe. Someone knows what they're doing so they can actually trust the entire process like what is something like that even look like would you anticipate cost wise? Like what would it cost out of pocket or either via insurance for somebody to come in and do a ketamine experience right now with you guys and what would compare to that, something like a long 8 hour experience with someone in your clinic would you anticipate with something like LSD look like people are just curious how much this stuff cost. Yeah, I totally get it. It's a fair question. Right now, a ketamine experience in our clinic is $750, which includes the whole process from the screening, all the way through to the end of the first experience, and then subsequent ones are $750. And it's $250 an hour for the integration therapy. So if you think about it as comparable to what you'd be paying a therapist, the cost is not actually disconnected, right? Like if you think a therapist is in the room with you for a couple of hours, you know, which probably is 202 $150 just for conventional therapy. And they're sitting with you for the duration of this. It kind of lines up to what you'd expect for therapy. And I think if you just extrapolate that to LSD or psilocybin, assuming that the cost of the psilocybin or the LSD is reasonable. You know, when you get drug development and approvals, you can have drug to drug companies charging an extreme number for the drug because they got to recoup their investment. And I don't have insight into what maps is going to charge for MDMA or compass is going to charge for their psilocybin..

"All right, so I've changed my mind on essential amino acids. That's right. Forget everything I've ever told you about essential amino acids. Maybe that's a little bit dramatic, but now I have your attention. There's actually some pretty cool information in the realm of essential amino acids, so called as I'm pretty darn stoked to share with you. My company key on my supplements company, we recently embarked on a huge undertaking. We worked with a third party independent research firm we conducted a meta analysis of all the most recent solid amino acid research out there. And lo and behold, we learned a thing or two about how to make our probably our most popular product ever our minos formula, even better. So I just released a banger of an article about all of this research, which you can go read at Ben Greenfield fitness dot com. Go over there and do a search for amino acids. Of all summarize the main points for it real quick. First of all, an overwhelming body of research pointed to one amino acid in particular for the incredible effect it has on muscle protein synthesis muscle repair recovery. A whole heck of a lot more, and that amino acid is leucine. So that's the first thing we did. We bumped up the leucine content to the dose recommended in the literature, which 2000 milligrams. And then we added histidine, and that's always been a hot button topic in the amino acid community. If such a community actually exists. But the long-standing belief has been your body could create histidine on its own. In the presence of all the other amino acids, but it turns out that was based on an outdated method of testing. When we look at the newer research using something called the tracer method, which observes amino acids directly inside muscle, we know the manufacturer of histidine inside the body isn't as efficient as it was once thought. So we added histidine. And finally, let's be honest, amino acid supplements are not exactly known to be tasty. And don't get me wrong. The Keanu minos were always delicious in my opinion, but being the overachievers that we are at keon, we actually went ahead and improved the flavors even more. And I promise you're gonna be blown away by how good the new cool lime and mixed berry powders taste. The flavor science is a key on. We spent months tinkering with only the best natural ingredients to kick these two up a notch to say the least. Not only that, but we took the sometimes difficult to swallow tablets that I've heard whispers about leaving a bad jockey taste and some people's mouths. And we went ahead and upgraded those too. So they're all new key on aminos capsules. They're easy to swallow the made of a 100% natural, planting gradients. That was a lot. I hope I didn't lose you. But anyways, you can get them now. Get key on dot com slash Ben Greenfield. The performance, the recovery, the gut nourishment, the sleep, the crushing of appetite cravings. There's pretty much nothing essential amino acids don't seem to do. So if you don't have these in your lineup, Adam. All new key on amino, so go check them out..

"Winston came up with a figure of five thousand dollars per person per year so we lost nearly thirty thousand people from twenty ten to twenty twenty and it times five thousand per person per year. I'm not a mathematician but it seems like that amounts to about one hundred fifty million dollars in federal funding per year. Give net a loss of population. And it's gonna had the most impact on health care funding from the feds and food and nutrition programs. Those are probably the two types of programs that are most dependent on census population numbers. Urban areas have traditionally than undercounted. They're harder to count because they have larger homeless populations and very hard to track those people down and they also have large populations of people that are simply just afraid of the government and don't want to respond. They don't have the voluntary response rate that you have in suburban and rural areas and so there's some hope for the city of detroit but i'm not gonna hold my breath on it. It was just a bad situation all around bought. We talked about this for. I think we've talked about it for two years actually Michigan league republic policy was out talking about the fact that detroit was going to be undercounted. I have no idea how many people they lost but people just did not get counted. You know there was a pandemic. There was an idiot in the oval office. So here we are now muan. Yeah let's move on. There's always more to talk about this time. let's start with a couple of stories around some state representatives. this is This is also disturbing. I'm gonna start with joel jones democratic representative for the eleventh district which is garden city. Inkster that area in april of this year. He was arrested by the state police who found him in his suv. In a ditch. The police have been called by multiple witnesses because the driving was insane like just so reckless. At one point driving eastbound in the westbound lane of i ninety six anyway ultimately he rolled over into a ditch. That's where the police found him in his passenger and he had a loaded forty caliber glock handgun in the vehicle. His pants are undone. The woman with him was unresponsive vomiting and it would later be revealed that his blood alcohol level was allegedly point one eight so more than double the legal limit. Now this is back in april upright and this is a serious allegation even though it may sound funny and parts you know. Because he's a lawmaker right. It's he's violating a law in a way that kills people and that in itself is bad enough. If that's where it stopped that would be bad enough but that's not where it stopped. And he started fighting with people. He told the state troopers the same night that he was going to call gretchen. Whitmer and she'll take their id's and their badges. He said he was in charge of their budget. Threatened them all that and if it stopped there that would be bad enough but it still didn't. He still obstructed he. He pushed an emt. He was to get into the ambulance. That was there for his passenger. Who was unconscious. They officers by the end of the night whilst the officers taste him twice and use pepper spray on just to get him into handcuffs and so he spent the night in county and at the end of it all ended up with eight charges against him and then You know and he was released on bond. He agreed not to drink Mere he agreed to random drug testing that kind of thing and then he went to facebook and he made some light..

A Really Tall Tower: Babel
"Today we're looking at genesis chapter eleven and this is how it reads. I'm just if i could just re-genesis eleven versus one through nine. It's short enough. Yeah i think that'd be great yeah. Jt why don't you. Why don't you read it these bible in front of you. Boom okay genesis. Eleven one thousand nine do it okay. Moses writes under the holy spirit now the whole earth had one language and the same words and as people migrated from the east they found a plain in the land of shinar settled there and they said to one another come let us make bricks and burn them thoroughly and they had brick for stone and vitamin for mortar. Then they said come. Let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens and let's make a name for ourselves lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth and the lord came down to see the city and the tower which the children of man had built and the lord said behold they are one people and they have all one language and this is only the beginning of what they will do and nothing they propose to do will now be impossible for them. Come let us go down. And there in confused their language so that they may not understand one another speech so the lord dispersed them from there over the face of the earth and they left off the building of the city. Therefore it's name was called babble because the lord confused the language of the earth and the lord dispersed them over all the face of the earth fascinating. What an interesting story. Now lewis opened up with this. Is this like the post-flood nirvana period like this. The post-flood utopia period because when it opens up. I guess we read the story of the tower of babel kind of back to front meaning. We kind of know where it's going but if you just read the first couple of lines of this now the whole earth had one language in the same words there they've migrated. They've settled there. They said to one another come. Let us build a city Like let let's build something. Okay if i could just pause in my mind if you just paused right there it feels like oh wow. They're doing what god told them to do after the flood there. It's one people They're living together and they're building. Isn't this a part of the cultural mandate cultivate and subdued there building a civilization. So like it seems for a moment like everything is going. According to plan right except that the language is telling us and they never yeah. Language come let us is is highly significant elsewhere. You'll see it In the book of exodus when Pharaoh says come. Let us build store cities and he. It utilizes the israelites slave labor to do so And so what we see in this building project and it's pretty clear that their motive for building is not to bring honor and glory to god. It is to ascend to the heavens and be like god that is to Make much of themselves. Not only that but cities are places that actually keep people in one spot and so part of what is confusing about the way. The narrative is written us. 'cause we're we're not necessarily paying attention to the typical rhythms. That's the original audience would have is that because we just had the of nations We're thinking oh okay. Everybody's all spread out and speaking different languages but the table of nations. This is not a chronological retelling. The table of nations is talking about how things look after the story of babble so it's important to see that. The fruitfulness medication and spreading out that is basically as we'll see Forced upon the human race at that. Point is that's recorded at the table of nations actually result of the story that we're reading. Yeah that i think that makes a lot of sense. I think one of the things that i i'm asking this question and i'm glad you brought that language because that's where i was hoping we would go with but i do feel like sometimes when i heard the story of the tower of babel tot and i don't know if this was just like the circles i in but i heard about it as oh they're doing something that the the the idea of city building Idea of structure building was anti-theft. What they should have been doing which living off the land and the garden. And i heard this is kind of like anti city hall cried for the anti progress that's the coal and eaten is the cultivate subdue and is the transform the earth into like this garden city so the act of building the act of development the active civic society. The active structure building isn't bad. It's not immoral but the reason they want to do it is

Who was Sirimavo Bandaranaike
"Today. We're talking about the world's first woman to lead as a prime minister. She defied all expectations to take her position and permanently changed the legacy of her country. Let's talk about CD Malvo Nike. CD Malvo Bundle Nike was born city map rap lot on April Seventeenth nineteen sixteen, and what was then known as the country of Salen. She was the eldest of six siblings. Both her father and mother were prominent in the Sinhalese community. That's an ethnic group that forms the majority of the population of Modern Day Sri Lanka at the time saline was a British colony. Cassation many of the top families in the country took on governmental roles and British names even said, he must father Barnes rat watt was named after prominent British general nonetheless, city must family care deeply about remaining Buddhist and preserving Sinhalese culture wherever they cut when city matern eight her parents sent her to a Convent Boarding School in Colombo the nation's capital under the British colonial rule. This was the best possible option for education. Still, her parents also took care to maintain their cultural traditions native language. When city finish her education she spent years touring the country doing social work including delivering food and medicine. She hiked through jungles and rough terrain to help organize and develop Bilas as a result, she gained a positive reputation throughout the island. In nineteen forty city my married a top government official named Solomon West Ridgeway Dias. Bandaranaike in a grand high profile wedding. The two were considered a perfect match. While city must husband played a more anglicized role in the colonial government city, my herself understood the needs of those living in rural areas. Said Ema, and Solomon had three children. Initially said he must professional role was largely that of an attentive wife. I nineteen forty-eight Salen was headed towards independence from Britain and city Mos home was packed to the brim with her husband's political associates, discussing strategy and the future of the country Solomon viewed his wife's role as a submissive one. Still she became a valuable political consultant. She was the one who convinced him to resigned his political position in nineteen fifty one. After he resigned he created the Sri Lankan Freedom Party or S L F R, which sought Sinhalese control of the country and a democratic socialist government city. Ma. Aggressively campaigned for Solomon in the following years and by nineteen fifty six, he won by a landslide and started instituting left wing and Sinhalese centered policies despite this victory, some of Solomon's political action. So divisions and tensions between salons various ethnic groups including the Tamil people in one thousand, nine, hundred, eighty, nine, he was murdered in his own private garden. City Mo was devastated even so she took action to fight for her husband's legacy. The very next year sitting you took leadership of the Party and was voted in as the world's first woman prime minister she would serve as the leader of the SFR for the following forty years. City must served as prime minister on and off over the next few decades prioritizing the same democratic socialist policies as her husband, she strived to raise the quality of life of her people and to reduce the overall inequality in her country. Following a win in the nineteen seventy election city. Ma introduced a new constitution that ended salon status as a British Commonwealth realm and renamed the country. Sri Lanka. Her focus on empowering Buddhism and the Sinhalese people alienated the Tummy people during one term in power. An uprising against her party had to be defeated with international military aid from India and Pakistan in the nineteen eighties. Economic troubles in the country accusations of corruption led to a crushing political loss by nineteen eighty-three tensions between the Tamil and the majority Sinhalese people boiled over into a bloody civil war that lasted until two thousand nine. Sumita attempted to repair the damage caused by discrimination against the Tamil but the divide was severe and her political power was waning along with her popularity by nineteen ninety, four city Mas Daughter Chandrika became prime minister, and then later the president of the Country Chandrika appointed her mother as prime minister but by then the constitution had changed. So the prime minister position was only supplementary to the role of the president offering little actual power. Serena remained in some form of office until a few months before her death she passed away on election day shortly after casting her vote at the age of eighty four. Though city Malvo's political legacy is complicated. She paved the way for future female heads of state and lead through political hardships with strength.

Why Are Suburbs So Unwalkable?
"This is April. Pam cassidy? We're the host of the podcast dressed the history of fashion and this season we travel throughout history and around the world to bring you more of the fascinating stories from behind the clothes. We wear we traveled a central Asia tiller all about the resist dyeing technique known as e Kat and to Paris to learn all about the legacy of Christian Dior. We also spore the history of a whole host of topics from plus ice, Bashar the clothing choices of colts listening to subscribe on apple podcasts or the iheartradio app or wherever else you get your podcast. Welcome to brain stuff from how stuff works. Hey, brain stuff, I'm Lauren Vogel bomb, and if you've ever driven through the sprawl of an American suburb, you note, the streets twist and turn even in the absence of hills. Rarely are they set up like a grid. Take one wrong turn and you could end up looping around a cul de sac forever. It can feel like, but how did these winding streets become so ubiquitous with the suburbs. The answer lies in the days following the industrial revolution of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, though, the period led to all of the modern technologies and food ways. We currently enjoy at the time it seriously worsened living conditions for many city dwellers we spoke with Paul night and architectural and urban designer here in Atlanta and the executive director of the Douglas, the Allen institute for the study of cities he said at any time before the early twentieth century, you really did not want to live in the cities, especially after the industrial revolution in places like London and New York, they were filthy. They were truly. Dangerous along came British urban planner Ebonics or Howard in eighteen ninety eight. He published the book tomorrow, a peaceful path to social reform, which was reissued in nineteen to as garden cities of tomorrow night said of the book, one of the ideas that came out of ebony users work was this idea of living in the country and then working in the city. So that you could get the best of both worlds. Sound familiar, thus what we know today as the suburbs were born around the turn of the twentieth century, but their early success depended on streetcars which allowed many people to travel to their jobs in the cities and Henry Ford automating the assembly line and introducing the model t car really helped the suburbs. Boom. But the biggest move to suburbia came after World War Two ended in nineteen Forty-five. Millions of American GI's returned from war with housing benefits, and the suburbs became the place to be for US families. So what does all this have to do with the curving streets? We know today while many big cities during the industrial revolution had terrible living conditions for the working class. They did have something desirable. The grid network. A look at New York City planners laid out the streets in a right angle rectangular formation as opposed to this spoken wheel layouts of cities like Paris. And that's no accident. A grid network is officially and it promotes walkability the typical suburban St. network spurned this layout in favor of wide roads with sweeping curves. One reason why was to make the suburbs appear closer to nature and to Ebenezer Howard's idea of living in the country. Night said the reason that people are wanting to leave the city is that idea of a return to nature and to provide a yard for their children and to get out of the unsafe environment of the city. It's just this bucolic idea if you want to promote this idea of nature and natural topography, the new can't have this rigid gridiron on your landscape. You've got to curve the streets in order to allow people to experience the curve, linear nature of nature. Another reason for winding streets stems from that giver of suburban life, the car the grid network is built around the idea of people walking from place to place, but the suburbs rely on cars and curved streets allow carts to travel faster than the grid network, which has constant stops at intersections, but curving streets have cost. They are less walkable precisely because they make four longer rose with fewer intersections the road network. Also has fewer streets than a grid pattern, which means less street frontage and therefore less space for retail offices and other mixed use developments having less walkable streets with less development forces people to drive more often that leads to another cost of curved streets. More car accidents urban driving can feel chaotic because of the increase in walkers and bikers, but it also creates slower speeds, and therefore fewer fatal accidents data from the US census bureau backs this up in twenty fifteen about nineteen percent of the US population lived in rural areas. But real tallies accounted for forty nine percent of all traffic fatalities. The US continues to become more suburban is. So it's unlikely that these winding streets will go away anytime soon night says infill building the development of spare land and otherwise largely settled areas provides opportunities to change the face of these neighborhoods. The challenge to achieving the grid network in the suburbs is both political and legal though, right now, most suburbs require developers to clear hurdles in order to make a pedestrian friendly grid pattern while those who create car Centric cul de sac.
